looks like the security upgrade they did after the hacking was worthless.

And once again I feel unsave storing personal data on GOA accounts.

Perhaps I should change my name and address to something weird so I dont have to wonder if i get strange spam letters from
strange companies.

The story how gm accounts were created last time was that somehow a real gm account made someones account a gm one. So somehow had access to a real gm account, but that doesnt mean that someone has to have that this time. As said they could have had have their accounts flagged as gm for sometime (before 18th of august) and only now do something stupid with it, which means that it is directly related to last time and nothing has happened to compromise goa's security.
Or it could just be someone who found a way to fool the servers to make him think he was a gm, which isnt exactly a compromise to goa's security. As it doesnt involve someone breaking into goa's pc's. Allthough it does mean that people can have gm rights outside goa's office, which you might be able to claim as bad security. However it also gives you some freedom as real gm's can access their servers with gm rights from their home pc and you can give player partial access atleast to gm rights to organize small events.
Example of the above is a german player who was able to record some nice footage, while being able to fly which was given to him by the gm.

Anyway I highly doubt that goa's subscription information has been leaked, so no real reason to panic. Besides goa wont tell us anything till they know whats going on, so they are probably on the case just do not know for sure how and what happened exactly.

Even if they cant state what items they can have whats to stop them going to Sidi and camping the big guys, if they cant get below 75% health and hit for shit loads I bet the bosses go down fast. Also from the last 'GM Account' incident it seems a GM account can spawn boss mobs so there would be no wait for the re-pop.

Catch them, log it, report it, lets get this kind of cheating scum off our servers, its either that or we all stop playing and find a different game (until the cheaters appear there ofc !!).

No reason why it aint a developer account, why limit yuorself to a GM account assuming they are cripped in any way.

If that is the case I suspect they could prolyl pop any mob and tele port themselves to wherever they want anyway, wouldnt need to bother with keymobs to pop apoc, in fact if they can create their own weapons for events you can bet they can simply automagically appear items.

Secondly they might be hard to trace as I Suspect that change control aint that high on mythic/goa servers since it took so long to resolve the last issues, but hey who really knows, they didnt tell us anything anyway.

I guess it's also possible they just have modified characters, changed by someone with a GM account last-time...

I hope that at the very least Kemor will give us a heads up when he is done investigating.

Ummmm, it took a very dodgy account from a self confessed associate to a thief/heacker to give "a story" last time....in lieu of anything official that was enough for me.

I wont be holding my breath.

 

[fema]

Just a thought. Couldnt this be Mythic/GOA's way do deal with radar cheaters? Seems very possible to me.

Badgirl (Infil) and Badboy (Minstrel).
Both lvl 5 if u look at duskwave...(strange they con yellow tho)
Both of them are RR1 (Guardian, that I saw for sure)


Me and Teheron (rr5 sb) jump em... I hit rr1 mincer until I go OOE with swings around ~120 every time,
Mincer still have about 75% health left (???????)
They smash us down veeeery fast, with hits and DD's for over 300 dmg ...(im rr6 with capped resists) Both me and Teheron was like "... eh, wtf did just happen??"

And no, mincer did not use AP, as my dmg was normal (and he is only rr1, so cant have any ap)

Both me and Teheron dead while mincer is on 75% hp and infil at 100% hp...

I have fought many mincers... rr1 mincer is like 4-5swings = dead.


decide for yourself what you want to believe..

and yes..... oh yeah baby, YEAH, i got UUUUUBERPWND, as everybody else would be from these 2 strong guardians with 7-8k+ hp and swings for about 2-300

anyone else ever noticed anything like this? (savages doesnt count )

Think they merely show a Midgardian player how it feels to have a savage on you.

 

[Thamiles]

Funny as Im a rr6 mincer and I hit for 150ish with best style and my dd´s hit for 150 max (when target is just ressed or resists down) unless they get resisted (50% of the time).
Besides dd´s cant crit.

Dont really see how mincers can be love childs of mythic.


cheat0r ha><><0rz go play cs kthx.

Exactley how would a mincer and inf running unstealthed.. and when attacked they kill us without being hurt themself be a way of detecting radar?

its not a way of detecting radar, but on radar there isnt anything about names. So you run to an unstealthed person and find out its the uber minstrell and get killed yourself. So you cant trust your radar to guide you to good targets as there is the possibility of you ending up with one of those uber characters.

Off course its a farfetched explanation and it has its flawes (ruining fun of non radar users aswell, not working on alb radar users, radar users still going for targets and just hoping it isnt one of the uber chars).

me too

 

[escapium]

well i saw the duel the minstrel had with the friar...

They wore fighting at atk, and the friar did a total damge of 1200-1400 and the minstrel was still at 75 % HP, when the friar died :/.. Besides that the friar dident evade once and the minstrel almost evedad anything.


hmmmm Weird, i mean evade 2 vs. evade alot.... and 70 % hp after getting hit for a total of 1200-1400,, seems weird..

except that it isnt my theory, its what i think fema meant. As i said its farfetched and it has many flawes in it, but it was an explanation how it possible could work as anti radar cheat. It was meant as an explanation, myself I think its just some cheaters who still have access to gm accounts from the hack incident. However making people unable to use their radar by sending ghosts to your pc or making undefeatable enemies is a way to counter radar, off course no sane company would go the way of putting these uber characters out there as it effects more non cheaters than cheaters.

 

[Rg.Roller]

The Red guard group came across Nxw i think or maybe the other one, but still they were duoing. Managed to uncover one and he seemed to fall pretty quick not suspious there...Comments about thier names where made after. Only reason why i remember...

 

[Demolay]

Cant see stealthed chars on radar just last known direction apparently

rofl, its totally new characters might aswell be mids or hibs originally.

If a mid decides to play alb on some other server he stops beeing a mid and becomes a cheating lamer alb instead of course :O

yeah thats how it is on BW

Got this answer from goa yesterday:

Greetings,

The incident with the two characters in question was solved last monday and they should no longer disturb your gameplay. Just an update on the report.

Yours sincerely,
